THE FETISH

New Edgecliff Theatre was established in 1998 and continues its mission to create a powerful artistic experience utilizing local professionals and stressing the fundamental communion between actor and audience. Our next play, Venus in Fur, finds a beleaguered playwright desperate to find an actress to play the female lead in his adaptation of the classic sadomasochistic tale of the same name. Into his empty audition room walks a vulgar and equally desperate actress who is utterly wrong for the sophisticated part, yet exhibits a strange command of the material. As the two work through the script, they blur the line between play and reality, entering into an increasingly serious game of submission and domination that only one of them can win. Look for this production at Hoffner Lodge at the end of February.
